Official Text

To the Honorable Board:

I respectfully request that your Honorable Board accept a grant of $150,000.00 from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission Community Mitigation Fund Transportation Planning program to the OSPCD Transportation & Infrastructure Division under the provisions of MGL Chapter 44, Section 53A. This grant does not require the commitment of new matching funds. The purpose of this grant is to pay for study and design of intersection mitigation at the Interstate 93 / State Route 28 / State Route 38 location, which is anticipated to experience detrimental impacts associated with the Everett Gaming Facility.

My staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank your for your consideration of this item.

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
